Kike & Jaime Quality of LIFE
Donation protected
Quique y Jaime son mis primos. Quique tiene 26 y Jaime 22. Nacieron con la enfermedad de los huesos frágiles en El Salvador. Ésta es una enfermedad genética que ataca sus huesos. Sufren frecuentes fracturas y roturas de huesos, que son dolorosas y costosas cuando se tratan. No cuentan con la atención médica adecuada debido al costo, por lo que han recurrido al tratamiento de sus lesiones ellos mismos. Esto es inaceptable y merecen nuestra ayuda. ¿Te imaginas si tus huesos se rompieran todos los días y no pudieras pagar una cita con el médico?
He creado este fondo con la esperanza de encontrarles ayuda para que tengan una calidad de vida digna. Su madre ha sido madre soltera la mayor parte de su vida y está desesperada por ayudar con sus hijos.
Tienen una gran necesidad de tener las necesidades básicas de la vida. Como miembro de mi familia en los EE. UU., Siento que es mi responsabilidad tratar de conseguirles la mayor cantidad de ayuda posible. Ojalá pudiera traerlos aquí para que puedan recibir la atención adecuada, pero eso es imposible para mí.
Los dos tienen problemas de movilidad. Kike es el hermano mayor y usa cajas de cartón para moverse. Jaime es un poco menos capaz y necesita más ayuda para moverse. Tenían una silla de ruedas motorizada que estaba vieja y la reformaron para poder usarla. Desafortunadamente, la silla ya no funciona y necesitan ayuda para reemplazarla. También estamos tratando de recaudar suficiente dinero para conseguirles sillas de ruedas motorizadas y camas adecuadas para ambos. Uno de ellos también necesita aparatos para escuchar, que son muy caros en El Salvador.
La vida es demasiado corta, merecen una vida digna con movilidad básica. Le pido que nos ayude con todo lo que pueda. Nuestra familia también está trabajando junta para ayudarlos. Yo personalmente trabajaré en este proceso para ellos desde Boston. Tengo planes de visitarlos en diciembre, por lo que rezo para que podamos enviarlos tanto como sea posible.
Kike y Jaime son tan inspiradores y dan esperanza al mundo. Sueñan con poder trabajar para ayudar económicamente a su madre. Mantengamos sus sueños y bríndeles la ayuda de la que se han visto privados hasta ahora.

Kike and Jaime are my cousins. Kike is 26 and Jaime is 22 years old. They were born with Brittle Bone Disease in El Salvador. This is a genetic disease that attacks their bones. They suffer frequent bone fractures and breaks, which are painful and costly when treated. They do not have proper medical care due to the cost, so they have resorted to treating their injuries themselves. This is unacceptable and they deserve our help. Can you imagine if your bones broke on a daily basis and you couldn't afford a doctor's appointment?
I have created this fund in hopes to find them help to give them a decent quality of life. Their mother has been a single mother most of their life and she is desperate for help with her sons.
They are in dire need to have the basic necessities in life. As a family member in the U.S., I feel like it is my responsibility to try and get them as much help as possible. I wish I could bring them here so they can receive the proper care but that is impossible for me.
In addition to the house, they also have mobility issues. Kike is the older brother, and he uses cardboard boxes to move around. Jaime is a little less able and he needs more assistance moving. They had a motorized wheelchair that was old and they refurbished it in order to use it. Unfortunately, the chair is no longer working and they need help to replace it. We are also trying to raise enough money to get them both motorized wheelchairs and appropriate beds for both of them. One of them also needs hearing aids, which are really expensive in El Salvador.
Life is too short, they deserve a decent life with basic mobility. I please ask that you help us with anything you can. Our family is also working together to help them. I will personally be working on this process for them from Boston. I have plans to visit them in December, so I am praying we can send them as much as possible.
Kike and Jaime are so inspirational and they give the world hope. They dream of being able to work to help their mom financially. Let's keep their dreams going and give them the assistance they have been deprived of thus far.
